EmpowerU
Mission:
Our mission is to provide high-quality education to those on the margins, so they can use their voice to create a better future. By combining technology, community, and award-winning educators, we have created a unique impact-based program that empowers marginalized youth and migrant workers and creates a generation of leaders who will ignite sustainable social impact.
Beneficiaries: Youth, Women, Ethnic minorities, Migrant domestic workers
Top 3 challenges:
- Restrictions on in-person gatherings as a result of COVID-19 that limit our in-person programmes
- Need for consistent professional accounting/bookkeeping support
- Sufficient access to laptop/desktop computers for students to learn in our technology classes
Impact on beneficiaries:
EmpowerU has educated over 2,000 students, provided over 2 million contact hours, delivered over 500 lectures, facilitated 544 CPR/AED certificates, and 432 Fire Safety certificates. We also serve ethnic minority youth in Hong Kong, enrolling over 140 EM students, working with 50+ community instructors, and reaching 7,000+ students online.
